Mabel D. Meyer was called home by our Lord Dec. 29, 2012. She was a lifelong, active Christian serving though the Lutheran faith.
Funeral services are planned for 11 a.m. Saturday, Jan. 5, 2013, at Trinity Lutheran Church in Garnett, with burial to follow in the Garnett Cemetery. The family will greet friends 6 p.m. to 8 p.m. Friday at the Feuerborn Family Funeral Home.
Mabel was born Feb. 22, 1920, near Palmer to William and Lucy (Keller) Meyer. She lived near Olpe through her school years and attended Brown-Mackie Business College, Salina.
She married Raymond Meyer Jan. 11, 1941, in Hiawatha.
Mabel delighted in every aspect of her children, grandchildren and great-grandchildren.
She was a member of Faith Lutheran Church Ottawa from 1949-1984; a charter member of Trinity Lutheran Church, Garnett; past church council treasurer; Sunday school teacher; hospice volunteer; conservator for mental health patients; and furnished cheerleader transportation for more than 20 years. Mabel loved working with the public as deputy Anderson County treasurer and bookkeeper for Warner Manufacturing Co. and Richmond Co-op.
She was a lifelong, rabid fan of almost all sports. Mabel played softball and was an accomplished bowler. She and Ray bowled in weekend tournaments and she participated in 24 consecutive national tournaments. Her hobbies included crossword puzzles, card games from Bridge to Rook, crocheting, hand quilting, baking Christmas cookies by the hundreds of dozens and, most of all, fishing.
She and Ray were inseparable teammates, taking day trips to Arkansas’ White River well into their 80s.
Mabel was preceded in death by siblings, Paul Meyer, Frieda Hinrichs, Dorothy Schade and Arleen Wallace.
Survivors include her husband of 70 years, Raymond Meyer, of the home; sons, Raymond Jr. and wife, Judy, Ottawa, and Duane and wife, Janis, San Antonio, Texas; grandchildren, Ryan Meyer and wife, Sandee, Derek Meyer and wife, Chandria, Megan Hixson and husband, Tom, and Jenni Meyer; great-grandchildren, Sydney, Abigail, Caleb, Lily, Connor, Chloe, Joshua, Mikayla, Paige and Annalynne.
Memorial contributions may be made to Trinity Lutheran Church.
